Promoters of pugilism, slum
bering these many years, have
harkoned to the threat ot ob
livion hover In over the pro
teuton. They move today to
keep the game among the top
hats and stiff shirts Instead
. ot letting It slide back Into the
tank town days before the era
ot Tex Rlckard,
There has been more activity
among matchmakers this
month than there was the
whole last year. The heavy
weight pot Is bubbling with
some mark ot enthusiasm and
perhaps somewhere, somehow
the million dollar gate will be

.'
There are a tew promising
promotions to stir the heart
ot the boxing follower.
Prlmo Camera, giant of the
big feet and sullen counten
ance, has been matched to de
: fend his title against veteran
' Tommy Loughran.
D1U OtUlumius, tuilllBi vuaui-
plon from Germany, however,
still Is in the front line and
what be does is vastly more
interesting than the behemoth
from Italy. Bchmeling, smiling
European, has outlined tor
himself a strenuous campaign
which might carry him back to
the title. He will meet Steve
Hamas,, former Penn State
grid star, at Philadelphia, King
Levinsky at Chicago, and Max
. Baer the Dandy at Los An
geles, Any one of Schmellng's three
fights promises more . thrills
coming scuffle with Loughran.

iJo" one has been ' licking
Tommy Loughran recently, and
Its not Impossible that he
should wear the belt after en
gaging the Italian in Florida.
But the fight has no real pros
pect' ot re-stimulating the flow
of gold at the ticket office.
,. Here Is what William Brau
efeer, sporting editor tor NEA
aervice, says about tbis title
match: ' -
"Not since Jack Sharkey and
Willie Btribllng executed their
: terpischorean extravaganxa at
Miami several years ago has
' there been snch an opportun
ity for plain and fancy ring
aide snoring ; as Is -offered by
the ' Carnera-Loughran exer
cises scheduled tor Feb. ti.
"Camera and Loughran
should do much to revive the
sport ot press row snoring.
The Bharkey-Strlbling affair
saw the pastime reach Its apex.
It was a spirited contest among
the scribes, the prise for non
ton sonorousness finally be-
; lng awarded to the late Bill
Mcueenan wno managed to re
main asleep even through the
preliminaries.
"Camera versus Loughran
' fieamn fn hn the crnwnlnfir mis
match, a statement I hope is
not too presumptuous In the
light of past performances. Ton
will have the picture of the
venerable Tommy, still fairly
Meet 01 fool, evacung me oer
serk rushes of big Prlmo.
Loughran can be expected to
provide a scientific exhibition
it he doesn't catch one on the
lug, and even if the Phllly
Phantom does poke his beak
v into one of the monster's
punches, it ' will prove just
exactly nothing." ,
Don't doubt the ability of
Mike Mlkulak's basketball
team. Every member ot this
basketball combination, select
ed from football talent, has
bad experience on the court. ,,
Johnny KItzmlller, (or exam-
; pie, could have easily made
. the University of Oregon var
sity in his undergraduate days.
Kits was a star In his prep
. school competition in Pennsyl
vania, and he was a member
of the Webtoot freshman team.
Billy Belnbart, Oregon's head
coach, looked to Kits to bring
'new life to the slumping Web
foots. Only bad luck for two
i seasons in a row kept this all
American off the first team.
. In 1929, the year. Captain
John J. McBwan pushed the
Webtoots up te more football
victories than they had seen
in years Kits fractured bis
ankle In the Oregon State game
at Eugene. It never strength-
' ened sufficiently for him to
report tor basketball. The fol
lowing year Johnny Injured
. the same ankle and that kept
him oft the court.
Kits was an all-around ath
lete but he concentrated only
on football at college. His
record from the east describes
blm as a sprinter and a tal
ented baseball player as well
as a basketball star.

BOXING
ROSS DEFEATS
Billy Petrolle Resolves to
Quit Fighting
After Loss.
new YORK. Jan. IS. UP)
Once more Uncle Will Petrolle,
a sturdy up-standing citUen. was
back in the ranks or ins unem
ployed today, a former prise
fiehter. with nothing to worry
about except a bit ot bond clip
ping now and then and that cigar
store be owns in uuiuiu.
The nld fellow folded his dun-
colored .Indian blanket and pack-
it away for tne last time,
ready to aooept as -final the teu
round beating Barney Ross, ot
Chicago, lightweight champion,
gave him in the Bronx coliseum
last night.
No More FiRnung.
"I'm going to send this to the
laundry now." he said, which was
absolute proof' that ha never in
tends to fight again.
A dosen years ago. nack in
Fargo, and, Petrolle started a
ring career that nevsr quite car
ried him to cnampionsnip
heights but did bring him Into
conflict with the greatest light-
weiehts of this decade,: as wen
as into possession of a 'lot of
currency which he still has, in
contrast to most ex-prlse fight-
He sot bis blanket from some
Indian chief almost at the start
of his campaign, be never would
enter a ring without it, and he
never would have it washed tor
fear the soap would take out all
the luck, as well as the . weird
colors. Now he admits that bis
need for the blanket Is gone.
Boss Brilliant.
"Tell them I'm through." he
said as he shuffled down the
ring steps in the big barn in the
Bronx last night, thoroughly
beaten by the brilliant little Ross.
"I can't fight any more, so I'm
not going to try."
Against eager, daullng Ross,
be was really an old man. lost
in the brilliance of a youngster
who ranks with the best his di
vision ever has . produced, a
floudering veteran with the sip
gone from his punches and the
speed departed -from his legs.
He had only bis inexhaustible
courage, and that was tar from
enough against the master boxer,
a sharp, thudding' hitter with
either hand. In only one round,
the ninth, when Barney obviously
was eossttng, was Petrolle able
to work his way laboriously to
close Quarters and gain the upper
hand. Barney beat blm once be
fore in Chicago.
. Verdict Unanimous.
Every other round, and the
unanlmons decision ot tbs judges,
the referee and the 12,041 of
the faithful who journeyed far
Into the fastness of the Bronx
for the battle, went to Ross.
Ross shook the veteran bad
ly at times, but never could floor
him or bring him close to the
knockout stage. His jabs, though,
raised two large welts under
Billy's eyes. - The fact that Uncle
Will was la tbs last mile was
correctly guessed by toe betters,
who made Barney a 3 to 1 fa
vorite, despite Petrolle's weight
advantage. Billy weighed 111,
Ross 134. -
New York hasn't seen such a
turnout in several years. Five
minutes after the show started
every bit of space In the uptown
barn was filled and at least 6,000
struggled with mounted police
outside to get at ticket windows
already closed.
After expenses and the fight
ers are paid, the net profits on
the $36,638 receipts will be turn
ed over to a Christmas fund
charity.
Officials ot Madison Square
Garden, in the heart of the fight
district downtown, gazed In awe
at the assemblage. Oarden fight
shows recently have been draw
ing an average of about t8,000
each.
